Simon & Schuster is publishing a biography about Obama's wife, Michelle Obama, by Washington Post reporter Liza Mundy. The book, currently untitled, will come out in October with a first printing of 100,000. Simon & Schuster is also releasing a children's work, "Barack Obama: Son of Promise, Child of Hope," by author Nikki Grimes and illustrator Bryan Collier. Another story for young people, Garen Thomas' "Yes We Can," will come from Feiwel, a children's imprint of MacMillan.

The left-wing Verso Books has just released "The Decline of Black Politics: From Malcolm X to Barack Obama," by civil rights activist Kevin Alexander Gray. The conservative Regnery Publishing just announced two books for August: David Freddoso's "The Case Against Barack Obama: The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media's Favorite Candidate," and Thomas Blood's "The Clinton Collapse: How Bill Clinton Lost Hillary Her 'Sure Thing' Nomination (And Might Even Make Obama Lose Too)."
"We intend to put him under the microscope, and we think readers will be very interested to learn what we uncover," says Marji Ross, president and publisher of Regnery, which in 2004 released "Unfit for Command," the best-selling attack against Democratic nominee Sen. John Kerry.
Oh, lovely Regnery.... the ultimate reach-around of conservatism.
